Unicode Version 17.0
降
U+964D "降" CJK Unified Ideograph-# is a Chinese character that primarily means "to descend," "to fall," "to drop," or "to surrender," and it is composed of the radical for a hill or mound on the left side combined with a phonetic and semantic element on the right that evokes the idea of walking down or yielding. This character is widely used in both classical and modern Chinese, appearing in common compound words such as "下降" meaning "to descend" or "decrease," "降低" meaning "to lower or reduce," and "投降" meaning "to surrender or capitulate." Its structure and meanings reflect core concepts of movement downward or submission, making it a fundamental ideograph in the Chinese writing system.
